WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:01.919 Thank you very much, John Shannon. It is six SOZH 2 00:00:02.000 --> 00:00:04.160 five here Kentucky in his morning news Coffee and company 3 00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:06.040 with you Nick Coffee. That is me and the full 4 00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:08.199 crew is here. You just heard John Shannon. Scott will 5 00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:10.000 be back with sports coming up in about twenty minutes. 6 00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:13.119 And of course the company man himself, mister John Olden 7 00:00:13.359 --> 00:00:18.120 alongside today. So the suspect, who I guess the suspect 8 00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:23.120 is unknown. There's still images from some surveillance footage or 9 00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:25.120 maybe it's I'm not even sure if it's that, or 10 00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:27.760 if it's from cell phone video. Whatever it is, you 11 00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:30.600 could it's everywhere. You can check it out on wlky 12 00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:34.399 dot com. The I mean, I hate even calling it 13 00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:36.320 a photo. It is that because you can't see much. 14 00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:39.079 But the individual who shot and killed a young woman 15 00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:41.960 yesterday is still at large, so just be aware of that. 16 00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:44.920 And this is where I don't I don't want to 17 00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:47.920 mock it or sound insensitive, but as I tell you that, 18 00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:51.280 I'm thinking, well, yeah, there's a lot of people who 19 00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:54.719 murdered someone in Louisville that are roaming our streets because 20 00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:57.600 there's so many unsolved murders. And I'm not I'm not 21 00:00:57.640 --> 00:00:59.399 going out of my way to take a shot at 22 00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:02.200 the inability to close these cases. Clearly it is a 23 00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:04.920 big deal, but this guy is one of many. Now again, 24 00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:08.879 he's probably in a state of mind that well, if 25 00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:11.560 you're somebody that has at this point gotten away with murder, 26 00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:13.799 I'm not sure what your state of mind is. But nonetheless, 27 00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:18.840 just be advised because not only is he dangerous, this 28 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.760 is also someone who you know, we want to see 29 00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:25.959 held accountable and arrested. So, yeah, just an awful day 30 00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.120 in Louisville yesterday overall, and two more shootings took place 31 00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:31.680 yesterday that took two lives here in Louisville since the 32 00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:33.959 school bus stop shooting. So we'll keep you updated as 33 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.200 best we can. But obviously that'll be a big talking 34 00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.439 point throughout throughout the day here and probably just for 35 00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:42.840 the foreseeable future to a certain extent, because yes, it 36 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:45.480 is not uncommon to turn on the news, turn on 37 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:49.159 this station, pop open the social media app and see 38 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.000 a new story about someone in Louisville being a victim 39 00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.200 of gun violence and maybe dying. It's just it's not 40 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:58.079 uncommon at all. In fact, it's fairly common. It'd be 41 00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:00.159 a rarity to have a few days where that didn't happen, right, 42 00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:06.719 So this isn't new. However, the last week has just 43 00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:09.159 seemingly been and I wouldn't even here for a good 44 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:11.080 stretch of that week, meaning I was I didn't get 45 00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:13.199 back to town until Sunday. But it just feels like 46 00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:17.560 right now there's been more. Again. I keep wanting to 47 00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.360 use the word awareness, but that's not really it doesn't 48 00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:22.639 feel like that's the exactly word. This is where I do, 49 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.520 in fact struggle sometimes with the English language because I 50 00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:29.120 just think there's a heightened awareness of wow, this is 51 00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:32.680 this place has gotten like really really bad off when 52 00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:35.960 it comes to violence. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm 53 00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:39.199 just viewing it from my own perspective, but yeah, it's 54 00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:41.240 just been a You go back to the initial school 55 00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:44.240 bus stop shooting. Now two juveniles fifteen year olds have 56 00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:49.960 been charged after somebody was charged yesterday and added an 57 00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.280 added suspect that's been charged, and then of course the 58 00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:56.680 Friday situation where there was a home invasion, abduction, robbery, 59 00:02:56.840 --> 00:02:59.560 all that with the family that was just gone went 60 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.680 through a tre experience, and then yesterday once again, another 61 00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:05.599 shooting at a school bus stop and it's just it's 62 00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.960 it's awful. It really is. I'll tell you what else 63 00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:12.800 is awful, this heat and this humidity. I was thinking 64 00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.479 about it yesterday as I was waiting impatiently for my 65 00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:18.000 vehicle to cool up. I've got real good ac in 66 00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:20.120 my car. I mean, I take pride in that. In fact, 67 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:24.800 I will nothing. Nothing satisfies me more than whenever I 68 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:26.800 have somebody that i'm that I'm that's riding with me 69 00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:29.280 in my vehicle for for whatever reason, and they compliment, Man, 70 00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:30.960 very c works good. I'm like you, damn right, it 71 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:34.039 does because I and I have no I have no uh. 72 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:36.560 I can't claim any any credit for it. It's just 73 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.479 I guess I'm lucky. But yesterday, when I was leaving 74 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:41.400 the gym, probably because I was hot, I just worked out, 75 00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:44.199 not that you can't tell. It took a while for 76 00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:47.240 me to to get the car at least feeling like 77 00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:49.280 it was giving me any cold air. That was that 78 00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:51.319 was relieving how hot I was. And I just thought, 79 00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.319 you know what, I hate August, and I realized August 80 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:57.520 is I never thought about it, but August is the 81 00:03:57.680 --> 00:03:59.360 worst month of the year in my opinion. Have you 82 00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:01.319 ever given that thought, John, Oh, it is. It is, 83 00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:04.080 so you're not. So I'm not alone here because. 84 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:06.360 It's not even just for the heat. But it feels 85 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:08.199 like you've been deprived. And this is more of a 86 00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:10.560 sports take, but you've been deprived from football for so 87 00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.360 long and you're right on the cusp of it beginning again. 88 00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:16.079 It just makes it feel like it goes on forever 89 00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:17.000 for whatever reason. 90 00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:19.600 So yes, I've always viewed it from the from the 91 00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.040 sports side of things, because we've done enough of the 92 00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.959 off season talking season football stuff and we're we're so close, 93 00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.199 but yet we're not. We are actually close, but it 94 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.000 doesn't seem like it because again, we've already done the 95 00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:34.759 off season chatter, and you really know, if you're a 96 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:37.279 big sports fan, that this is it's about to get 97 00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.120 in gear here, right, It's about to get going to 98 00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:41.160 where you got college football, then you've got the NFL, 99 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.920 then you got college basketball, and clearly those three things, 100 00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.439 specifically for us here in this region, that's that's what 101 00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:50.720 dominates interest. So that's exciting, and we've been waiting long 102 00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:52.279 enough and now we're here, but let's get to the 103 00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:54.879 finish line quickly. So yes, I've always viewed it from 104 00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:58.439 that perspective. However, also with even if you're somebody that 105 00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:01.839 likes summer weather and the winner, can you at least 106 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:03.959 compromise with fall, Like I think you can look forward 107 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:05.600 to fall. And maybe you're somebody that hates the winner 108 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.360 so much that you hate the fall because it actually 109 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:09.319 means you're closer to the winner. I love the fall. 110 00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:11.439 I actually think you could make the case that. Well, again, 111 00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.959 everybody has their own opinions. I think fall is the 112 00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:17.639 best season for a variety of reasons. Weather's more comfortable, 113 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:22.879 it's usually pretty beautiful outside, and sports is up and 114 00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.759 running really everywhere when it comes to college basketball getting 115 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:29.439 started and of course the NFL college football. So yeah, 116 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:34.439 in my worst months of the year rankings, August is 117 00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:36.959 at the top right now, and I don't I don't 118 00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:38.040 see any real competition and. 119 00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:40.040 Put all summer months in the top three. If I'm 120 00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:42.560 being honest, I thought you liked summer. No, I mean, 121 00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:44.759 I like my wife being off work, but I cannot 122 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:46.720 deal with the humidity the same way that you can't. 123 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:49.600 Yeah, we're alike you and I, So in fact, let's 124 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:51.399 do this on the other side. I'll give you a 125 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:54.639 quick update there is a you gov survey that came 126 00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:59.600 out earlier this year that tells us which months Americans 127 00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:01.920 like the most in which ones they dislike the most. 128 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:03.519 So we'll take a look at that. We'll see how 129 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.000 rare our opinions are. Here, Ari, we've got another update 130 00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:07.800 of trafficking weather coming your way right here, right now. 131 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:09.759 And I hope you stick with us. Why would you not? 132 00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:11.959 It's to Kentucky at his morning news Coffee and company 133 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:16.560 right here on news Radio eight forty whas, six seventeen 134 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:18.680 here at Kentucky and his morning news Coffee and company 135 00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:24.040 with you news Radio eight forty whas. So I'm telling 136 00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:26.920 you August is in a field by itself when it 137 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:28.920 comes to being my least favorite month. And I thought, okay, 138 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:32.399 am I in the minority here, and I'm not John Olden. 139 00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:35.480 He also says he's out on August. The hell with August. 140 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:38.040 Get it out of here, just remove it. Tell just 141 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.600 give us fifteen more days of July and fifteen more 142 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:44.600 days of September and will act like August doesn't exist. 143 00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:46.639 That's what I would prefer, but I know that won't happen. However, 144 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.839 you Gov gives us a really detailed survey here as 145 00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.319 far as the favorite and least favorite months in America, 146 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.600 and they do it by all adults. You can then 147 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:03.199 pick by region, gender, and age. So the regions are 148 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:06.920 tough because what are we We're not Midwest, and that's 149 00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:08.920 a different conversation for a different day. Because I do 150 00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.199 believe that we are. We're probably not alone. There's other 151 00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:13.399 cities that also kind of feel like they don't have 152 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:17.560 a home. As far as being Northeast, Midwest, South, or West, 153 00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:20.759 we are probably closer to I don't know, man. 154 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:23.439 I think we're technically the gateway to the South once 155 00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:24.720 you cross the Ohio. 156 00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:30.759 River because we have more i think similarities to the 157 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.920 South than we do the Midwest. But we really don't 158 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:34.319 comfortably fit in either. 159 00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:35.439 Right, Yeah, I think that's fair. 160 00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:38.759 But I would say, like northern the northern Kentucky, I 161 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.759 would say is way more identifiable with the Midwest than 162 00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.439 they are the South. However, you get like south of Louisville, 163 00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:48.959 I would say you definitely identify more with the South. 164 00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:51.759 So again we got a mixed bag. But anyways, as 165 00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.319 far as all adults your favorite month of the year, 166 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:59.519 we'll start with favorite than least favorite. We we're we're 167 00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:02.519 I mean, we're pretty normal here. You've got October is 168 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:07.079 the leading vote getter, really, yeah, October, and then you've 169 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.160 got May and June, and yeah, May and June. I'm sorry, 170 00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:15.000 it is October, and then December, followed by May and 171 00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.439 June as a tie for third. After that you've got April, 172 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.319 and then you know, the others just don't have enough 173 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:23.879 votes to where they really crack it. You know, it's 174 00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:26.319 hard to say that. They're like they got barely any 175 00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:31.279 votes compared to the others. Now, the least favorite all adults, 176 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:36.919 the least favorite month, let's see here, is January. And 177 00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:39.320 I get that because that's just when Christmas is passed. 178 00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:42.600 You're really if you're in, if you're in the where 179 00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:44.600 the winners are terrible, then I'm sure you dread it 180 00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:48.519 and hate it. And then after that you've got February. 181 00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:50.879 But January, by the way, is the he's the leader 182 00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:54.840 among months as far as the one that Americans like 183 00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:56.919 the least. And then after that you've got a close 184 00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:00.000 battle for second. But February has the slight edge five 185 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.799 followed by August, so it's in the top three overall 186 00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.759 all adults. Across the entire United States. So and then 187 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:08.679 from there, some people don't like December. I mean, shame 188 00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:10.559 on you. I hope you get no Christmas presents if 189 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:13.279 that's the case, because December is really one of my 190 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.200 favorite months. So let's do it by real let's do 191 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:21.799 it by age. So least favorite month by age. If 192 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:25.480 you are between let's see, we're we're in the same 193 00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:27.519 level here, thirty through forty four. That's you and I 194 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:30.879 both actually know. I'm sorry thirty almost. I was just 195 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.360 talking to John Shannon, how I cannot believe how young 196 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.360 you are. So you're eighteen to twenty nine, and for you, 197 00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:42.960 the least favorite is January, and that was the leader overall. 198 00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:44.440 So I feel like every age range that's going to 199 00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:46.799 be In fact it is every age range has has 200 00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:48.120 the leader being January. 201 00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:49.720 I really don't hate January. 202 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:51.960 Well again, I think it's because of our culture, because 203 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.840 we love college basketball. I mean, it's just something the 204 00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:58.039 height of it right there. We get so like it's 205 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:00.399 such we care about it. And this sounds silly, I know, 206 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:04.480 but we care about college basketball more than anybody in 207 00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:06.879 it's a if you're a big fan, like you know, Okay, 208 00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:08.759 we've got a weekday game, we got a Saturday game. 209 00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:12.720 So everything that typically would be unlikable about January, cold weather, 210 00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:15.559 Christmas coming to an end, it getting dark at five pm. 211 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:18.360 Sometimes you get distracted by that to an extent because 212 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.360 you have something that you enjoy, like college hoops. 213 00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:20.720 That's true. 214 00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:23.399 We don't have that at exactly. So yeah, there you go. 215 00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:28.320 As far as the yeah, let's see here. As far 216 00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:31.960 as the most favorite. As far as age, the leader 217 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:36.519 for your age range was December, and the same thing 218 00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:39.120 for me. So actually, no, I'm sorry for me. It's October, 219 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:40.879 so we we're not alike there. 220 00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:43.799 I'd probably go with April or May. Springs my favorite year. 221 00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.120 Springs beautiful, no doubt. All Right, we've got an update 222 00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:47.840 of tfficing weather coming your way. Scot's back with another 223 00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:49.600 update on sports as we roll along here on news 224 00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:53.759 radio eight forty whas. Thank you very much. John. It 225 00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:56.000 is six thirty six at Kentucky in this morning news 226 00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:58.399 Coffee and Company. That's us. My name's Nick Coffee. The 227 00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:00.480 full cruise here, John, All in the long side you 228 00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:02.440 just heard John Shannon. Scott will be back with another 229 00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:05.039 sports update coming up in about twenty minutes, you are 230 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:07.600 about four minutes away from your next update on traffic 231 00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:12.120 and weather. And maybe it's just me, but I feel 232 00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:16.519 like the biggest the time in the morning where I 233 00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:18.919 get up and start my commute, which is very early, 234 00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:21.279 I would say compared to most but I could be wrong, 235 00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:23.440 but the roadways tell me that I'm not wrong. So 236 00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:29.840 usually I'm on the road by about four am, three thirty. 237 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:32.279 Between three thirty and four am, what I've noticed though, 238 00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:34.320 is that I don't need to get here as early 239 00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:37.360 as as I have been initially, so that's actually giving 240 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:38.919 me a chance to sleep in a little bit longer 241 00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:41.600 than I was in the first few weeks. But but I'm 242 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.600 getting I think the emptiness that is there when school 243 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.080 is not in session is really noticeable. And it's not 244 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.399 like we've got rush hour traffic at four am, but man, 245 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:56.120 there's a lot of people on the roadway now compared 246 00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:57.919 to what it was previously, which again is just a 247 00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:03.559 reminder of how many people in in this city are. 248 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:09.279 Their day starts with some type of when they start 249 00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:12.080 their day is somehow a factor of what JCPS does, 250 00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:15.000 because maybe they work for the school system, maybe they 251 00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:18.080 have to get their kids somewhere super early because they've 252 00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:19.679 got to get them in childcare to then get on 253 00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.279 the bus. So everybody's situation is different. But yeah, these 254 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.320 last couple of days now that really everybody is back 255 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:27.519 to school, busier roadways, so again that could mean that 256 00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:29.519 we could have more traffic issues. So we'll get an 257 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:31.960 update on traffic coming your way in about two and 258 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:34.159 a half minutes here from Bobby Elli's. Also another update 259 00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:37.440 on the forecast with Matt Melosovich of WLKY. So when 260 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:43.639 it comes to the news currently from yesterday, well, the 261 00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:45.720 current update on the yesterday's news at the school bus 262 00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:47.759 stop where a woman was shot and fatally killed, her 263 00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:50.639 identity is yet to be released. However, there are many 264 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:56.200 loved ones friends that have shared social media posts and 265 00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:59.240 they're calling she I guess she goes up goes by 266 00:12:59.279 --> 00:13:02.360 the name Juicy. That is the name that Pia friends 267 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:05.279 say their friend known as Juicy was. You know, friends 268 00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:08.200 are confirming, family members are confirming that in fact, that 269 00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:09.960 is who was shot and killed. So the identity has 270 00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:12.240 yet to be released. I'm sure that'll happen here soon. 271 00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:17.000 But yeah, there's still a suspect at large here because 272 00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:19.960 the fifteen year old that they took into custody yesterday 273 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.120 at Shawne High School ended up not being the suspect, 274 00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:25.600 which is good news that it wasn't a fifteen year 275 00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:27.360 old kid. But if we find out that it is 276 00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:29.480 in fact a minor, I'm not going to be shocked 277 00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:33.879 by any means, So be on the lookout. The pictures 278 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:36.120 are everywhere when it comes to the local news, and 279 00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:38.559 obviously you can see it on our social media pages 280 00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:42.000 here at eight forty whas as well as woky dot com. 281 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:46.279 And hopefully they can find this suspect sooner rather than later. 282 00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:52.320 But when it comes to the violent crime that is 283 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:56.000 either juveniles that are the victims or they're the perpetrators, 284 00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:00.279 clearly that has become a real big issue. It's not 285 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:02.080 that it's new. I mean last year. In fact, I 286 00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:06.159 think up until June June of this time last year 287 00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:08.879 there was actually more violent crime involving juveniles, which was 288 00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:13.039 surprising to a lot of people. But either way, it's 289 00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:15.639 an issue at any level. Right if it happens once, 290 00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:16.879 it's an issue. I don't want to make light of 291 00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.480 it like, oh yeah, we'll do a few of those 292 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:20.679 juvenile murders. We'll do bad. No, I mean, I'm just 293 00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:23.480 any time it happens, it's bad. But like right now, 294 00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:26.440 I feel like there's more awareness of it than ever, 295 00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:29.039 and it's just because it's not getting any better, right 296 00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:34.480 and I really can't get over the fact that we 297 00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:38.480 just don't have anything in place that will actually get 298 00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:43.000 these violent people off the streets. Yeah, they're kids, some 299 00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:45.320 of them as young as like thirteen years old, but 300 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:50.200 they're also violent. They're a threat, and there's also a 301 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:56.279 level of being that young and naive ignorant to the world. 302 00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:58.399 To me, it adds an element of you being more 303 00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:02.320 scary to me. You know, you don't really know what 304 00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:04.240 you're doing, meaning like you're not you're not you're clearly 305 00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:06.879 not thinking your life through, knowing that you're making decisions 306 00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:09.120 that could cost you your life in a variety of ways. 307 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:10.919 You could die, or you could end up in prison, 308 00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:14.639 or maybe you won't end up in prison. Because when 309 00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:16.840 it comes down to it, like some of these people 310 00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:19.120 that are committing violent crimes that are that are children 311 00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:21.919 under eighteen years of age, and I suppose it depends 312 00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:24.679 on what level of crime they committed. They're just being 313 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.080 held until somebody can come and get them, and that 314 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:31.320 is not only not the right way to go, it's 315 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.759 just fueling the world of violent crime in Louisville. Because 316 00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:41.279 if you don't think that these juveniles are being led 317 00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:44.519 into this lifestyle by gang members, I mean, not every 318 00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:47.240 situation is the same, but I mean look at some 319 00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:49.840 of these, like the carjacking situations that's taken place in 320 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:53.519 recent years. I mean that has been tied to Again, 321 00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:56.279 not every situation is the same. Where they're working. I 322 00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:58.559 mean they're they're they're young gang members. I guess just 323 00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:01.519 doing that, doing the dirt that that the others don't 324 00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:04.279 want to do. They've got young, stupid kids that'll do 325 00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:06.600 it for them. And it gives these kids who have 326 00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:09.039 no parents at home, nobody that's ever probably made them 327 00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:11.519 feel as if they have any worth or any value, 328 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.840 and now they found somewhere where they feel like they belong. 329 00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:17.759 And unfortunately it's with a violent gang where they're committing 330 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.919 violent crime, and that it's just it's a cycle that 331 00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:24.080 some's got to give, and I think that something is 332 00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:28.679 start incarcerating these children for their own good and for 333 00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:31.600 the good of this city. And as we discussed a 334 00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:35.200 couple of days ago, it's at the state level. The 335 00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:38.320 state has to take initiative and get the ball rolling 336 00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:43.240 here to get this process started. And when that happens, 337 00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:45.440 I don't know. I've got some theories as to why 338 00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:48.320 they don't seem real concerned about it, and we'll talk 339 00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:50.080 about that coming up here next. Again, your next update 340 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:52.080 of trafficking weather's right here right now on news Radio 341 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.000 eight forty whas a couple of minutes away from your 342 00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:58.440 next update on traffic and weather, so stick around for that. 343 00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:03.639 Sorry for my poor clock management so far today. I'll 344 00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:06.960 do better. In fact, I have. I've had to do 345 00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:09.559 better with the change here to has. But this will 346 00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:11.119 be a quick segment and I'll try to keep us 347 00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:12.519 on track the rest of the way to where we 348 00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:15.119 don't have, you know, two minute segments. That's on me. 349 00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.519 I'll do better. But when it comes to they're no 350 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:22.480 longer being a juvenile attention center here in Louisville, and 351 00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:25.200 clearly they're never seemingly being a bigger need for one 352 00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:29.799 than right now. It's perplexing, right and at the state level, 353 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:31.759 that's where the that's where the wheels got to get 354 00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.480 moving in order for that to actually happen. And it 355 00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:38.039 hasn't happened yet, and there's no real there's no real 356 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:42.000 belief that there's any date set or a date that 357 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:47.519 they're targeting. And it was counselman, Uh, I'm in my 358 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:54.160 head now about Nogentini. I mean, I think and again 359 00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:56.680 I could see you could tell me. Once I get 360 00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:01.240 a name wrong, then I just I always second guess 361 00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:03.680 it if I'm getting it right, So I think it's 362 00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:06.440 Pa Agentini, but if it's not, I apologize to to 363 00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:08.440 this individual. But he was momentary minors. We played the 364 00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:10.920 sound earlier this week, and he was just he mentioned 365 00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:14.960 that specifically that there's just no there's nobody at the 366 00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:17.720 state level that's that's really making this a priority, and 367 00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:20.519 that's unfortunate. But one thing that hadn't really hit me 368 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:24.000 until he he he brought it up. But it's so true. 369 00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:26.799 You know, what you're exposed to, what your environment is, 370 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.240 that that has a big it's a big factor in 371 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:30.799 just sort of your state of mind and like and 372 00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:34.200 you know you're in your own bubble to an extent, Well, 373 00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:37.720 if you're in Louisville every day wherever, wherever it may be, 374 00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:41.039 East End, West End, downtown, you know you're you're exposed 375 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:44.440 to a world really that is different than the rest 376 00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:46.119 of the state of Kentucky. I mean, think about that, 377 00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.200 the vast majority of this state, they're not exposed to 378 00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:52.240 anything like we are here. And I don't mean just 379 00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:54.640 the violent crime, but a lot of things. I mean, 380 00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:57.160 Louisville is a is a big city, and there's really 381 00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:59.599 no comparison as far as a city that is the 382 00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.160 same size than Louisville. I mean, Lexington's a bigger city 383 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:04.799 than the rest, but it's not close to Louisville as 384 00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:08.519 far as size. So when they're not when they when 385 00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:11.240 it's not their community and they're not waking up and 386 00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:14.119 living every day, going to work, sending kids to school, 387 00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:17.480 they're not thinking about the violent crime that takes place 388 00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:20.119 in Louisville and how a lot of it lately has 389 00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:23.960 been juveniles that are that are a part of it. So, 390 00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:25.759 you know, I don't know what we got to do 391 00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:28.000 to do to let them know. I mean, Basher's been 392 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:31.319 in town for the Ford announcement, certainly for the ge 393 00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.400 And I mean I'm being tongue in cheek here as 394 00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:36.160 far as like does he know, clearly he knows, but 395 00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:39.160 like something needs to be done. There needs to be 396 00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:41.720 some kind of action taken because the current, the current 397 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.480 arrangement where these juveniles really until they do take someone's life, 398 00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:47.839 they're not really held accountable as far as being incarcerated. 399 00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:53.119 That's that's benefiting those that really are the leaders of 400 00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:56.880 violent crime in Louisville, meaning gangs. All right, we've got 401 00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:58.480
